The Development and Conservation Manager informed the Committee that the Development Management Team Leader would introduce and present Agenda Item 5 23/01189/FP and Agenda Item 6 23/01190FP together, however each Agenda Item would then be debated and voted on separately.

The Development Management Team Leader provided an update that:

·       Application 23/01189/FP was for one building to the south east side of the road.

·       Application 23/01190/FP was for nine buildings on the north west side of the road.

·       The Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) had responded with a technical objection to application 23/01190/FP.

·       Work was ongoing with the applicant regarding the technical objection from the LLFA and did not alter the recommendations of the application. 

The Development Management Team Leader presented the reports in respect of applications 23/01189/FP and 23/01190/FP supported by a visual presentation consisting of photographs and plans.

The following Members asked points of clarification:

·       Councillor David Levett

·       Councillor Sean Nolan

In response to the points of clarification the Development Management Team Leader stated that:

·       The applicant had agreed to a higher Section 106 payment to cover the cost of the proposed cycle path, therefore Condition 7 from Highways detailed at 4.3.14 of the report had not been recommended, and that this was not the same as Condition 7 of the report recommendations.

·       The LLFA objection related to an aquifer located under the site which was a technical objection, should this remain outstanding after discussions and negotiations between the applicant and the LLFA the application would then return to the Committee to reconsider.

Councillor Daniel Allen commented that this was the right use for the site and that the Committee should follow the recommendations in the reports. 

Councillor Tom Tyson proposed and Councillor David Levett seconded and, following a vote, it was:

RESOLVED: That application 23/01189/FP be GRANTED planning permission subject to the reasons and conditions set out in the report of the Development and Conservation Manager.
